Chapter 186 Good thing

Gao Xian didn't just have a sudden idea, but had a premeditated plan.

Alchemy is labor-intensive work and very hard. And the output is limited.

Gao Xian calculated that if he devoted himself wholeheartedly, he could refine 200,000 pills in a month.

The problem is that with such high-intensity alchemy, there is no free time except for necessary practice and rest.

The purpose of cultivation is to obtain a higher and better quality of life. Such hard work in refining elixirs is worse than an ox or a horse.

Furthermore, the sales volume of elixirs is also limited. You cannot sell as much as you refine.

Of course Gao Xian thought about opening up other sales channels. He talked with Yun Chenglin, the shopkeeper of Yunshui Tower, but Yun Chenglin declined.

Mainly Lujiaosan and Tianguidan are too low-grade, so they have to be sold in large quantities to make a profit.

Yunshuilou's high-end route, selling Lujiaosan and Tianguidan, does not meet Yunshuilou's positioning.

Furthermore, the low-end market in any place is bound to be monopolized by the local sect.

Yunshuilou operates a high-end market to avoid conflicts with local sects.

If they compete with local sects for profit, Yunshui Tower will not be able to bloom everywhere.

After Yun Chenglin explained it briefly, Gao Xian understood. It was indeed the case.

He sold Lujiao Sandu to fight with Xu Lingyun and the others. If Yunshuilou dared to sell low-level elixirs, he would definitely be outraged.

Tiangui Spiritual Pill is actually of good quality and can be regarded as a first-class elixir.

However, Gao Xian refined the elixir mainly to obtain the aura of humanity.

Refining Tiangui Spiritual Pill is quite troublesome, and it cannot be refined in large quantities. Tiangui Spiritual Pill and Tiangui Pill provide the same humane aura.

If it is useful, it is low input and high output.

No matter how miserable the cultivators are, at least they can read. There are very few entertainment options for the lower-level casual cultivators.

It is undoubtedly the simplest form of entertainment. A large number of literate people have a communication foundation.

Gao Xian went to Lianyuncheng Jinshutang and saw that the ones with a few talismans each sold the best.

One book can be watched over and over again, and can be watched by multiple people. This advantage is unmatched by elixirs.

Finally, writing takes little effort. Even if it fails, the cost is negligible.

Gao Xian took up his pen and wrote four words on the paper: "A Chinese Ghost Story".

Many classic works from the previous life, well, are not easy to transfer directly.

After much deliberation, he still felt that the movie version of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was good.

This Liaozhai story only needs to slightly change the background and characters.

Grandma, Demon Cultivator, Nie Xiaoqian, a female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect under the control of Demon Cultivator, specializes in using women to lure monks so that Grandma can practice demonic skills.

Ning Caichen, Qi Liansan cultivator, Yan Chixia, Foundation-building cultivator.

The story is colorful and exciting, with lingering love, heroic loyalty and a sinister and vicious villain. All elements are present.

Gao Xian wrote the story according to the movie version, and the most important thing was to add some sexy plot.

For example, how female ghosts seduce male cultivators, how Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen dual cultivators, etc.

The main aesthetic of ordinary monks is simplicity and roughness.

Gao Xian felt that he did not need much writing skills. Although practitioners in this world could read, they mainly used it to learn spells and techniques, and their literary literacy was very poor.

He just let go and wrote. Anyway, there is no cultural supervision organization in this world, and no one cares about the ideological state of the practitioners.

Gao Xian also has a special skill, which is his hyper-realistic painting technique, which can paint characters extremely lifelike.

With an ordinary brush, he can depict the details of a woman's eyelashes.

Based on the look of the heroine in white clothes in the movie, Gao Xian made appropriate adjustments and modifications to retain the ethereal elegance of the female ghost in white, while making her facial lines more slender and delicate, reflecting the female ghost's fragility.

Other female ghosts wear various looks, looking fat and thin, all they want is to be sexy and exciting.

It's so sticky that your eyes can stick to it just by looking at it!

Gao Xian wrote the story based on the movies in his memory. As a veteran who has read countless movies, drawing illustrations is even easier for him.

When he completes the foundation building, his past life memories are completely integrated into this body, and these memories are completely stored in the sea of ​​consciousness.

As long as he is willing, every word and picture he has read can be clearly extracted.

When a foundation-building monk ignites his natal spiritual light to penetrate the inside and outside, he not only completes the control over the inside and outside of the body, but also initially completes the control of the soul.

Completely controlling one's own memory is only the most basic manifestation of mastering one's soul.

Gao Xian already had a complete outline in his mind, and now his hand speed is so fast that he really writes like a master.

In more than an hour, more than 100,000 words of "A Chinese Ghost Story" have been completed. There are 22 hot and exciting illustrations in the middle.

After completing this masterpiece, Gao Xian read it through it once and was quite satisfied with the result.

No matter how it is written, as long as it has super-realistic pictures, it will instantly kill the others.

The most powerful thing about pictures is to go beyond text and use images to create a visual impact.

There will be text barriers, and different people will have different understandings. Images can eliminate this barrier to the greatest extent. Therefore, comics, film and television works can more easily break through cultural barriers.

The author's signature is Liu Sanbian. This master of erotic poetry must not mind others using his name to write erotic stories.

Use exquisite firebending skills to dry the ink, simply bind and cut it, and a homemade rough reading is completed.

He originally wanted to show it to Daniel to feel the effect. After thinking about it, he decided not to trick the child and let Daniel refine the elixir.

Gao Xian put on the Qingyuan Ruyi robe, transformed into a downcast middle-aged man, and quietly left the Zhu family through the wall.

There are several bookstores in Lianyun City, which mainly sell various low-level spells and techniques. They are all called Jinshutang, Jade Bookstore and so on.

Among them, Jinshutang is a chain and is the most famous. Behind it is Lu Lingfei, a foundation-building monk.

Compared with elixirs, magic weapons, magic talismans, spiritual objects and other important resources for practice, low-level spells and techniques cannot be sold at a high price, and they are even less valuable.

Jinshutang has a very prestigious name, but in fact it can only rent a small store at the corner of the long street.

Guys, there are only two shopkeepers in total.

There were a few cultivators wandering around inside, but they didn't seem to have any strong intention to buy.

Although Gao Xian looked like a down-and-out middle-aged casual cultivator, the waiter still greeted him warmly.

"What do you want to see? Our family has a complete range of spells from various schools, as well as some unique secret techniques, and a wide variety of travel notes..."

Gao Xian interrupted the young man's introduction. He glanced around and said in a low voice, "Are you collecting books?"

The clerk was startled for a moment and said: "Take it, what kind of book are you talking about? Spells or?"

"."

Gao Xian took out the book from his sleeve, showed it to the boy, and then quickly took it back.

The little guy was a little helpless, he thought it was some amazing magical secret! It was so mysterious in one book.

He suddenly lost interest and said lazily: "It's not worth much."

Most of the things that people use to kill time are given away as free gifts.

Gao Xian ignored the little boy. He went straight to the shopkeeper and handed the book over, "Look at it and give me a price."

The shopkeeper is a middle-aged fat man, he looks very smooth, and his fat face is full of kindness.

He glanced at "A Chinese Ghost Story" and felt disapproving of it, but he politely picked it up and read it.

"Fellow Taoist, you are just a plaything,"

The middle-aged fat man thought Gao Xian was ridiculous. Who would come here to sell a copy? How much is this thing worth?

He was just about to dismiss the other person casually, but he was immediately attracted by the illustrations inside.

The figures are as lifelike as living people, and the shapes are as vivid as if they were alive.

The fat middle-aged man had seen countless illustrations, and this was the first time he saw such an impactful illustration.

At this moment, he seemed to be standing at the window watching the men and women having fun inside.

The middle-aged fat man flipped through it again. Every illustration was so delicate and lifelike, making people seem to be brought into the world of the book.

He couldn't help but think of a word: "Amazing skills!"

As for what is written, it doesn't matter at all.

The middle-aged fat man showed a warm smile on his face and stood up, "Fellow Taoist, how do you sell your books?"

"Fifty spiritual stones." Although Gao Xian didn't need these small sums, he still wanted to sell as much as possible.

The higher the purchase price, the more middle-aged fat people will care about it, and they can also use snacks to promote it.

The fat middle-aged man was startled, and the smile on his face froze.

He paused for a moment before forcing a smile and said: "Fellow Taoist, my Xuanzhen Evil-Breaking Technique only sells for fifty spirit stones, but you are just..."

The Xuanzhen Evil-Destroying Technique is a top-level first-level magic that specializes in destroying evil spirits and filth. It is quite superb.

Generally speaking, casual cultivators will never practice such complicated spells. If you have the money, you might as well buy two Yiyang Talismans to save trouble.

Gao Xian discussed the price with the shopkeeper for a long time, and finally settled the deal with twelve spiritual stones.

This price is already considered a sky-high price for me. Gao Xian is also satisfied.

The waiters on the side were all stunned. The boss must have fallen under the enemy's spell, and he actually used spiritual stones to buy it.

After Gao Xian left, the shopkeeper picked up A Chinese Ghost Story and admired it carefully. He read every illustration over and over again and gained great spiritual satisfaction.

He even fell in love with Nie Xiaoqian. If there was such a Hehuan sect female cultivator, he would spend all his savings to get married to her.

After the novelty wore off, the middle-aged fat man started to read it. Only then did he realize that it was very beautiful. Although the text was a bit direct and simple, the description made people's blood rush.

The key point is that this story is worth reading and savoring again and again, which is amazing.

After closing the door at night, the shopkeeper took the boy to the backyard, first dismantled A Chinese Ghost Story into pieces, and copied each piece of paper a hundred times using a magic weapon.

Then these pages were re-binded, and there were one hundred copies of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

After spending so much spiritual stone, the middle-aged fat man would of course have to work hard to promote it.

The hyper-realistic paintings are comparable to high-definition cameras. This kind of realism brings such a huge shock that ordinary cultivators simply cannot resist.

The middle-aged fat man sold out a hundred copies of "A Chinese Ghost Story" in just one day, including selling and giving away.

The middle-aged fat man is overjoyed, this business may make a lot of money...

Gao Xian didn't pay attention to Jin Shutang's actions. He now has at least a thousand humane auras entering his account every day.

He couldn't tell from which channel these humanistic auras came.

Even if "A Chinese Ghost Story" can help him obtain the aura of humanity, the effect will not be visible in a short period of time.

This can only be seen as time passes and "A Chinese Ghost Story" can provide a sufficient amount of humane aura.

For Gao Xian, this was just a small experiment. He successively wrote "Butterfly Lovers", "The Jade Girl's Heart Sutra", "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" and other works, which were mainly pornographic and violent, with various illustrations.

Of course, his main focus is still on cultivation and alchemy.

While Gao Xian is enjoying a comfortable life, the sect leader Yun Taihao has been staying in Pegasus Ji, constantly mobilizing various resources, and seems to be determined to protect Pegasus Ji to the death.

He didn't understand this at first. The Pegasus Collection was of little value, and the underground ruins were too useless. There was no need to protect him by death?

But one day he suddenly figured out that Yun Taihao didn't care about Pegasus Ji, but the boundary line of the sect.

When Pegasus Ji gives in, it is equivalent to actively giving up the door to others. No matter how valuable this door is, it is the safety boundary of Lianyun Sect.

The Qisha Sect does not want Pegasus to gather. The Qisha Sect's goal is the Lianyun Sect.

In this case, we must try our best to protect Pegasus and defend against enemies.

Gao Xian figured this out and felt a little ashamed. As an ordinary person, he really had no strategic thinking and always thought of things too simply.

Yun Taihao is much stronger than him. He is very clear-headed and decisive and ruthless. As a sect leader, this person is very qualified.

According to Yun Qiushui, there may be more complicated reasons behind this Blood Evil Sect invasion.

Gao Xian didn't like Yun Taihao, and he didn't want to stay in Lianyun Sect, but he still hoped that Lianyun Sect would be safe and sound.

If the demon cultivators really want to invade Jiuzhou, even the Qingyun Sect will not be able to stay out of it.

It's already tiring enough to get involved like crazy with other cultivators. If a powerful external enemy appears again, you won't be able to survive.

Gao Xian's thoughts were useless, Pegasus Ji had become a frontline battlefield. In July, the sect began to recruit foundation-building monks from other cities.

This time, there were no Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang.

Zhu Qiniang was also promoted and became the leader of the Shanggong Hall and the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, responsible for managing Lianyun City.

In other words, now even Yuncheng is under Zhu Qiniang's control.

This transfer and promotion also shocked the whole Lianyun Sect. Zhu Qiniang, an outsider, actually gained the trust of the sect leader and occupied a high position. This was unimaginable before.

However, Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang understood that this was compensation given to them by Yun Taihao, and it was also a disguised show of goodwill.

Zhu Qiniang and Gao Xian discussed it and both felt that this was a good thing. At least the sect leader showed goodwill.

Zhu Qiniang was not a good person. After she came to power, she took control of the power and sent people to deal with the families of Xu Lingyun and Zhang Chunjiang.

After these two foundation-building monks fell, because the sect was busy dealing with foreign enemies, other foundation-building monks did not have time to attack them.

Zhu Qiniang is not big-hearted and cruel. Since Zhang Chunjiang and Xu Lingyun attacked her first, how could she be polite if she had the chance?

After a lot of trouble, two hundred thousand spiritual stones were squeezed out from the two major families.

The prosperous Zhang family and Xu family were destroyed. The two monk families, including Huang Dapeng and Pang Su, were inevitably affected.

Fortunately, Pang Su had made good friends with them early, and Zhu Qiniang was merciful to the Pang family and the Huang family.

Since then, Zhu Qiniang's evil reputation has spread throughout the Lianyun Sect. Everyone is in awe of this woman.

In private, it was inevitable to talk about Zhu Qiniang in various ways, saying that she was cruel, greedy for money, and fond of men.

However, someone soon pointed out that Zhu Qiniang's face, Gao Xian, was also a foundation-building monk.

The talk about Zhu Qiniang's love for men immediately disappeared. Instead, the couple completed the foundation building at the age of thirty and became a legend.

Even if Gao Xian stayed at home and never went out, people would always come to visit him every day, or send invitations to invite him to banquets.

Suddenly, the Zhu family was bustling with people, and many cars and horses parked there every day, blocking the entire road.

Although Gao Xian never paid attention to what was going on outside, he could still see the bustling scene outside while refining elixirs across the courtyard.

Sometimes he would also use his spiritual consciousness to scan the induction and listen to what these people had to say.

The guests who came to visit me on their own initiative would not dare to say anything bad about them even if they were talking privately. They would all praise and marvel at them.

They said that all Zhu Qiniang and high sages were born with talents, each with unique abilities and a bright future. These complimentary words were said over and over again by them...

Gao Xian didn't even have to show his face. He felt very happy when he heard the praise and admiration from everyone.

The Zhu family's attitude towards Gao Xian has also changed greatly, and everyone is respectful to Gao Xian.

In the past, everyone was just pretending, but now they all respect Gao Xian sincerely.

Gao Xian has never changed, smiling at everyone. It is this look that makes Li Niang, Zhu Ying and others even more afraid.

After building the foundation, he can still maintain his previous humility and gentleness, which shows how deep this person is...

Gao Xian actually doesn't like others to be respectful, but if others insist on doing so, he won't stop them.

Although you won't have friends this way, it will be very convenient to do things. Just give an order and someone will do it right away.

Although Zhu Qiniang is cold and gloomy, she obviously also likes the feeling of having power. In front of outsiders, she becomes more and more cold and solemn, showing off the appearance of a great monk.

The sales of Lujiao San and Tiangui Dan have doubled. This is because each family, in order to please Zhu Qiniang, actively purchased the two types of elixirs and distributed them through various channels.

With the size of Lianyun Sect, selling 80,000 pieces a month has reached its limit.

After all, it is not a serious elixir. Although it is good for the body and cultivation, it is not a big problem if it is not used.

Sales of elixirs have increased significantly, and Gao Xian is even more unable to judge the effects of works such as "A Chinese Ghost Story".

As far as he felt, these works should still be useful. But they couldn't compare with the effects of elixirs.

It was not until the end of December that Yun Taihao returned to Lianyun Sect with a group of foundation builders.

Zhu Qiniang also behaved in a low-key manner.

On New Year's Eve, Gao Xian was in a daze in the main room, while the servants outside were decorating the lanterns and preparing to celebrate the New Year.

Everyone was wearing new clothes and their faces were filled with joy.

This year Zhu Qiniang came to power, and everyone in the Zhu family benefited. Naturally, everyone was happy.

Gao Xian was not in the mood to celebrate the New Year. He missed Yuling a little and was not optimistic about the future of Lianyun Sect.

On the other hand, he couldn't think of a proper way to escape.

The fact that Yun Taihao was able to invite Yun Qingxuan to take action proved that he had a good relationship with the Qingyun Sect. He decided to switch to the Qingyun Sect.

"Brother, what are you thinking about? You are so sad..."

Wan Yingying, wearing a bright red dress, jumped over and greeted Gao Xian with a smile.

Gao Xian patted Wan Yingying's head gently. She looked particularly lively and cute with her braids.

Wan Yingying is usually very attached to him. When he is refining elixirs, she likes to watch him with wide eyes, just to wait for him to say a few words when he is free.

Gao Xian was never married, so he naturally had no children. Wan Yingying was so well-behaved and cute, he always felt like he had just picked up a daughter.

Except for being a little clingy, everything else is great.

Wan Yingying became more and more familiar with him, and her title was gradually simplified from brother Gao Xian to brother.

"Don't take pictures, it won't look good if your hair is messed up."

Wan Yingying said and stretched out her little hand: "Brother, I need to give you lucky money during the Chinese New Year."

"If you want New Year's money, you have to kowtow to pay New Year greetings." Gao Xian said seriously.

Wan Yingying was a little hesitant. She was very close to Gao Xian on weekdays and spoke very casually. She kowtowed to Gao Xian very formally. She always felt a little embarrassed.

Gao Xian couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw Wan Yingying's distressed look. Children are just fun, and their happiness and worries are so simple.

Gao Xian was about to speak when he suddenly felt something. He pushed the door open and saw a man in white in the yard.

This man has long eyebrows and narrow eyes with a cold expression. He is dressed in white clothes like snow and wears a long sword at his waist.

Standing in the courtyard, he naturally had a cold edge and a commanding power. He was none other than Yun Taihao, the leader of the Lianyun Sect.

The strange thing is that the busy servants in the yard seem to be unable to see this person.

Gao Xian was shocked, what was Yun Taihao doing here?

If you want to see this sect leader, all you need to do is pass on him a few words, and he will have to come to visit you all the time, so why bother to come in person?

Yun Taihao still fell directly from the sky. It would be very rude to place him anywhere. What's more, Yun Taihao is still the lord of the sect.

Wan Yingying ran out with Gao Xian. When she saw Yun Taihao, she was startled and hurriedly hid behind Gao Xian.

Gao Xian was also a little surprised that Wan Yingying, at such a young age and not even angry yet, could actually see Yun Taihao.

This keen sense is even better than that of some Qi practitioners.

Yun Taihao also glanced at the little girl, but he quickly withdrew his gaze and looked at Gao Xian coldly.

Gao Xian quickly walked down the steps, bowed his head deeply and saluted: "I didn't know that the sect master was coming, so I couldn't welcome him from afar. I apologize for my sin."

Yun Taihao said calmly: "You have the Qingyun Order in your hand. Are you planning to participate in the Qingyun Dharma Assembly?"

Gao Xian's heart sank suddenly, knowing that this guy's sudden appearance would be no good!
